Wangaratta Saleyards Standstill Exercise

This exercise will be run by Agriculture Victoria in conjunction with Wangaratta Saleyards to practice implementing the local plan for a Livestock Standstill. A LSS is a necessary measure imposed during an EAD outbreak, such as Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) in Australia.

The objectives of the exercise are:

• Build awareness of LSS Saleyard roles and responsibilities
• Practice LSS procedures
• Test whether there is enough guidance and detail for LSS Saleyard roles and responsibilities.
• Test whether the physical resources (ie equipment etc) available are adequate to implement the Plan
• Develop areas of the Plan which are currently lacking detail

Morning tea and lunch will be provided.
